Patent number: 12204433Abstract: Systems and methods include identifying fields associated with a log event of telemetry data and, for each field, selecting a key from multiple keys and generating a field-key mapping that includes a mapping from the fields to the selected key. The systems and methods generate an event log parser extension that includes the field-key mappings and validate the parser extension by testing its performance on sample log events. The systems and methods then execute a base parser and the validated event log parser extension on event logs to convert the event logs into a standardized format and perform data analytics on the standardized event logs to identify trends in the event logs and identify possible threats.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2023Date of Patent: January 21, 2025Assignee: Google LLCInventors: James Paul Black, Adityashankar Kini, Dwaipayan Dutta, Adam Licata, Ashish Garg

Patent number: 12054261Abstract: An active vibration control system (AVCS) and method for reducing motion and/or vibration of a seat frame within an aircraft includes vibration sensors, a controller, and force generators. In some embodiments, the vibration sensors and/or the force generators are attached to the seat frames. In other embodiments, the vibration sensors and/or the force generators are attached to aircraft structures, proximate to the seat frame. By monitoring the motion and/or vibration of the seat frame, the controller calculates a cancelling force to be generated by the force generators to reduce the vibration experienced by the seat frame and its occupant. Such seat frame vibration control can be implemented as a separate AVCS in an aircraft, or can be integrated in an existing AVCS that is also configured to provide vibration control in other parts thereof.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2019Date of Patent: August 6, 2024Assignee: LORD CorporationInventors: Paul Black, David Newton, Douglas Swanson

Publication number: 20230009337Abstract: I am a practicing physician who has not only recommended these same vitamin ingredients to roughly over 1000 patients. I have also monitored the progress long with other health recommendations such as exercise, proper diet, rest, and spinal adjustments. I have achieved with the patient amazing results of immune support and a reduction of inflammation (reducing inflammation reduces pain) in an inhospitable environment such as today. I am perhaps alone in my knowledge and patient experience and I wish to share these achievements with the world (companies will copy my vitamin volume ideas). However, I must first patent my results of my many healthy patients.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2022Publication date: January 12, 2023Inventor: Stephen Paul Black

Publication number: 20220103101Abstract: Actuators are components of machines, which move and/or control a mechanism or system. During operation, actuators can experience regeneration events, with the actuator actually generating excess energy (e.g., regenerative energy) which must be stored or dissipated to avoid damaging the power supply. An actuator motor controller is configured to implement field oriented voltage control and flux weakening voltage control without current sensors. Dissipating regenerative energy includes providing a motor controller to command a motor drive to modify an input voltage, or to dissipate regenerative energy in a dump circuit. This command can cause motor windings to dissipate regenerative energy. Systems having a plurality of actuators distribute regenerative energy from one actuator to another. A central controller provides centralized regeneration dissipation control for the plurality of actuators.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2021Publication date: March 31, 2022Inventors: Paul Black, Douglas Swanson, Russell E.
